Agreed. If ever there were a vessel.... She's a beast but she's got about an acre up top for a solar farm and two detroit 671s plus 2700 gallons of deisel and tankage equals lots of space and weight budget for batteries!

Alas today it's new exhausts, full what exchanger rebuilds, couplea pumps, couplea oil leaks a d bobs your uncle.
